Poem of the Week

Before you give high praise to my ex
You should check out the text
Rumi said it best
Putting thoughts to rest
Pretty words fall from a rotten tongue
Better hide before you're stung

Sorry darlin....don't cross temptation
This story is my redemption

Ah, well we have all been there, with an "ex" I can say Rumi sure brings solace and wisdom to our lives, more if we listen to his words, rather than preach them to others, great poem Raw
